Abstract (en)
The present invention relates to an electronic arrangement for a vehicle for controlling signals in an electronic display arrangement. The electronic arrangement is arranged to selectively switch between a plurality of different operational settings (11, 12, 13, 14, 15). A display unit (10) is arranged to display each of the operational settings (11, 12, 13, 14, 15). A signal gateway (20) denies or permits access to at least on signal from at least one instrument (30), to the display unit (10), depending on the selected operational setting (11, 12, 13, 14, 15). Each operational setting (11, 12, 13, 14, 15) is associated with an identification signal (50) representative of a unique displayed size of the vehicle on the display unit (10). The arrangement is further arranged to receive the at least one input signal from the at least one instrument (30), the at least one instrument (30) being at least one information receiving instrument and/or at least one vehicle information collecting instrument and; substantially simultaneously providing access for the identification signal (50) and the at least one input signal through the signal gateway (20) to the display unit (10).
